I always find XML::Simple to be so simple that it seems like extra work to back the structure out once it's parsed into a hash. XML::TreeBuilder is easier to wrap my head around with the descriptive method names, but still simpler than using XML::LibXML

When putting a smiley right before a closing parenthesis, do you:

Use two parentheses: (Like this: :) )
Use one parenthesis: (Like this: :)
Reverse direction of the smiley: (Like this: (: )
Use angle/square brackets instead of parentheses
Use C-style commenting to set the smiley off from the closing parenthesis
Make the smiley a dunce: (:>
I disapprove of emoticons
